Every Little Bit Helps

Yesterday, in the break room at work, I helped someone to vote.

A co-worker was saying that he wasn't sure if he was going to be able to vote on Nov. 4. He had recently moved and had changed his registration, but he didn't know how to check to see if it had gone through. He was afraid of going to the polls and being turned away.

I hooked him up with our local county registrar website, LA Vote.net, and we put his current info into the questionnaire.

It turned out that, yes, he was correctly registered.

That was a vote that probably would not have been cast. I walked around for the rest of the day feeling as if I had done something worthwhile.

Little things mean a lot, y'all.
